What would happen to your weight if the gravitational pull got three times stronger?
we would get three times heaver :)- weight = mass x gravity (9.8m/s/s) btw
Why do you gain weight when on Jupiter?
Because the gravity there is much stronger.
What would happen if you were on the moon?
If you were on the moon your weight would lower, as there is no gravity.
What would happen to your weight if you went to the moon?
On the moon as the gravity is less you will only weigh 1/6th of your natural weight there.
What will happen of your mass if you go up to moon?
Nothing. Your mass isn't affected by gravity. Your weight changes though. Your weight in earth/6= your weight in moon
What wouid happen to mass and weight of a body if the force of gravity disappear suddenly?
Thr body's mass would not change, but its weight would suddenly disappear.
Do gravity affect the weight of an object?
Yes. Mass is constant for a given object. Weight is a function of mass and gravity, stronger gravity more weight.

What will happen to mass and weight of a body on earth if suddenly gravitational attraction of the earth disappeared?
Your mass would be unaffected, it is simply to do with the atoms in your body. Your weight would be reduced to zero as that is simply how much your body is affected by gravity.
How does the gravitational pull determines the body weight?
Weight is a measurement of the downward force experienced by a mass in a gravity field. The stronger the field the greater the weight.
What would happen if you were on the moon?
If you were on the moon your weight would lower, as there is no gravity.
Why is the weight of an object on earth different from its weight on the moon?
Because earth is a larger planet than the moon, it has a stronger gravity. Bigger the planet > Stronger the gravity. That is the rule. Since our moon is a much smaller planet, it has weak gravity, and so the object is not being pulled down as hard, so it reduces the overall mass.
Why do people have different weight on different planets or on the moon?
People have different weight on different planets or the moon due to variations in gravitational pull. Gravity is weaker on the moon and certain planets compared to Earth, resulting in a person weighing less. Weight is a measure of the gravitational force acting on an object, so it changes based on the strength of gravity.
What happens to weight as mass increases?
Nothing, "mass" is a property of matter and is constant. Weight is the force of attraction of one mass to another (the affect of gravity on a mass). Thus if weight increases it means that the mass is in a stronger gravity field.
Is weight stronger mass?
Weight and mass are fundamentally different things, and they are measured in different units (newton, versus kilograms). Weight is caused by mass, but it also depends on gravity. The formula is: weight = gravity x mass Mass also causes inertia.
Is weight and mass alike?
Weight is the measure of gravity that is holding you down. Mass is how much is being held down. Mass of a person will not change if suddenly they're transported to the moon. The weight, however, will because the pull of gravity is less. So they are related, but not alike.
